As Simple as Math
For some odd reason I want to send a heart to your phone
Wrap it up securely in a couple of parentheses and give it to that electronic techno airway that will transform it into a bubble
a little grey bubble with a tail
jutting out to show it's origin in the conversation
Black font, something generic and neutral and plain
Arriving safely with a three note tune
Waking you up
Making you shut up
Forcing you to look up
"The reason why I'm NOT with this guy"
Stare at this heart I hope this one is visible through the light of your screen among the business of your thumbs
Stop and observe the way the little shameless three curves and how it contrasts the sharp rigidity of the less-than's point
And my point is for this simple representation to be the symbol of nothing
Just math
